YCM Awards - UBS Trophy
21 December 2023
Every year to close the season, HSH Prince Albert II pays tribute to the Club’s sailors at the YCM Awards for the UBS trophy which recognises young competitors in the Sports Section, as well as members and owner/helmsmen who are competing at the highest level.
Prizes are awarded in two categories: the YCM Youth Awards (Optimist, ILCA and Kite categories) and the YCM Awards for society members who have best defended the Club’s flag during the regatta season.

Final Smeralda 888
11-13 October 2024
11-13 October 2024
Thanks to Adalberto Miani and class president, Charles de Bourbon des Deux-Siciles, the Smeralda 888 one-design class has an established Mediterranean circuit. It is unique in the sense that it offers international events in prestigious venues such as Saint-Tropez, Porto Cervo in Sardinia, Cannes and Monaco. Designed by German Frers, the Smeralda 888, at 8.88m in length with four crew, is quick, lively, pleasant to helm and a joy to watch being both elegant and competitive.
The boat handles well in a strong breeze and is nimble in very light winds. Tradition dictates that the Smeralda 888 International Championship ends with the final regatta being hosted by Monaco.
